Juventus coach Luciano Spalletti is expected to start Randal Kolo Muani and Nick Woltemade simultaneously in a tricky away match against Lecce.

It kicks off at 18:00 CET [17:00 GMT] at the Stadio Via del Mare in Lecce.

Juventus’ injury crisis has deepened this week, with Nico Gonzalez and Zeki Celik suffering fresh injuries that will keep them sidelined until the next international break in November.

Kenan Yildiz, Manuel Locatelli, Francisco Conceiçao, Khephren Thuram, Jeff Ekhator and Kamil Grabara are also injured, while Arkadiusz Milik is not part of Juventus’ Serie A squad.

According to multiple sources, including Sky and Gazzetta, Spalletti will once again start Woltemade and Kolo Muani up front. Juventus only have 17 outfield players available for this game, including eight defenders.

Woltemade scored from the spot and provided an assist in Juventus’ 2-2 Europa League draw with Rennes this past Thursday.

Lecce also have selection issues with Medon Berisha, Ivan Ilic, Lassana Koulibaly and Santiago Perotti unavailable.

Juventus have grabbed only five points in their last five Serie A matches, while Lecce earned six in the same period, with two wins and three defeats.
